To market to market, went my brother Jim,
Somebody threw a tomato at him.
Tomatoes are soft, and they don't bruise the skin,
But this one hurt Jim, it was wrapped in a tin.
Chorus:
Now Mary the milkmaid was milking the cow,
The trouble with Mary, she didn't know how.
Along came the farmer and gave her the sack,
So she turned the cow over and poured the milk back.

One day in the restaurant my soup was quite thin,
I noticed a cockroach was swimming therein
I said to the waiter, “What’s this I can see?”
And he said, “It looks like backstroke to me!”

No more upon the stove, will he push her little nose,

I came to dance (4x)
I hit the floor cause that's my plans (4x)
I'm wearing all my favourite brands (x4)
Give me space for both my hands (x4)
I throw my hands up in the air sometimes
Saying "Ayo! Gotta let go!"
I wanna celebrate and live my life
Saying "Ayo! Baby, let's go!"
Cause we gonna rock this club
We gonna go all night
We gonna light it up
Like it's dynamite!
Cause I told you once
Now I told you twice
We gonna light it up
Like it's dynamite!
I throw my hands up in the air sometimes
Saying "Ayo! Gotta let go!"
I wanna celebrate and live my life
Saying "Ayo! Baby, let's go!"
Cause we gonna rock this club
We gonna go all night
We gonna light it up

Cause I told you once

I'm gonna be the last one standing
I'm over it all and

Cause I, I, I believe it
And I, I, I, I just want it all
I just want it all
I throw my hands up in the air sometimes

There was an Old Lady who Swallowed a Fly
There was an old lady who swallowed a fly;
I don't know why she swallowed a fly - perhaps she'll die!
There was an old lady who swallowed a spider;That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her!
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly;
I don't know why she swallowed a fly - Perhaps she'll die!
There was an old lady who swallowed a bird;
How absurd to swallow a bird!
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider;
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her!
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly;
I don't know why she swallowed a fly - Perhaps she'll die!
There was an old lady who swallowed a cat;
Fancy that she swallowed a cat!
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider;
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her!
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly;
I don't know why she swallowed a fly - Perhaps she'll die!
There was an old lady that swallowed a dog;
What a hog, to swallow a dog!
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat,
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider;
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her!
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly;
I don't know why she swallowed a fly - Perhaps she'll die!
There was an old lady who swallowed a goat;
She just opened her throat and swallowed a goat!
She swallowed the goat to catch the dog,
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat,
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider;
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her!
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly;
I don't know why she swallowed a fly - Perhaps she'll die!
There was an old lady who swallowed a cow;
I don't know how she swallowed a cow!
She swallowed the cow to catch the goat,
She swallowed the goat to catch the dog,
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat,
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider;
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her!
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly;
I don't know why she swallowed a fly - Perhaps she'll die!
There was an old lady who swallowed a horse;...She's dead, of course!
The Fox (Ukulele/Guitar D)
(Highlighted words are for soloists)
The fox went out on a chilly night
He prayed for the moon to give him light
He had many a mile to go that night
Before he reached the town-o, town-o, town-o
He had many a mile to go that night
Before he reached the town-o
Well, he ran till he came to the great big pen
The ducks and the geese were kept therein
He said, "A couple of you are gonna grease my chin
Before I leave this town, town-o, town-o"
He said, "A couple of you are gonna grease my chin
Before I leave this town-o"
He grabbed the grey goose by the neck
Threw the ducks across his back
And he didn't mind the quack, quack, quack
And the legs all danglin' down-o, down-o, down-o
He didn't mind the quack, quack, quack
And the legs all danglin' down-o
Old mother Flipper Flopper jumped out of bed
Out of the window she popped her head
Cryin', "John, John, the gray goose is gone
And the fox is on the town-o, town-o, town-o
She cried, “John, John, the gray goose is gone
There's a hole in the bucket, dear Liza, dear Liza,

With what shall I mend it, dear Liza, dear Liza?
With what shall I mend it, dear Liza, with what?
With a straw, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry,
With a straw, dear Henry, dear Henry, with a straw.
The straw is too long, dear Liza, dear Liza,
The straw is too long, dear Liza, too long,
Then cut it, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry,
Then cut it, dear Henry, dear Henry, cut it.
With what shall I cut it, dear Liza, dear Liza?
With what shall I cut it, dear Liza, with what?
With a knife, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry,
With a knife, dear Henry, dear Henry, a knife.
The axe is too dull, dear Liza, dear Liza,
The axe is too dull, dear Liza, too dull.
Then sharpen it, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry,
Then sharpen it, dear Henry, dear Henry, sharpen it.
With what shall I sharpen it, dear Liza, dear Liza?
With what shall I sharpen it, dear Liza, on what?
With a stone, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry,
With a stone, dear Henry, dear Henry, a stone.
The stone is too dry, dear Liza, dear Liza,
The stone is too dry, dear Liza, too dry.
Then wet it, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry,
Then wet it, dear Henry, dear Henry, wet it.
With what shall I wet it, dear Liza, dear Liza?
With what shall I wet, dear Liza, with what?
With water, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry,
With water, dear Henry, dear Henry, water.
In what shall I carry it, dear Liza, dear Liza?
In what shall I carry it, dear Liza, in what?
In a bucket, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry,
In a bucket, dear Henry, dear Henry, bucket.
There's a hole in my bucket, dear Liza, dear Liza,
There's a hole in my bucket, dear Liza, a hole.

On Top of Spaghetti
On top of spaghetti,
All covered with cheese,
I lost my poor meatball,
When somebody sneezed.
It rolled off the table,
And on to the floor,
And then my poor meatball,
Rolled out of the door.
It rolled in the garden,
And under a bush,
And then my poor meatball,
Was nothing but mush.
The mush was as tasty
As tasty could be,
And then the next summer,
It grew into a tree.
The tree was all covered,
All covered with moss,
And on it grew meatballs,
And tomato sauce.
So if you eat spaghetti,
All covered with cheese,
Hold on to your meatball,
Whenever you sneeze.

I've been working on the railroad just to pass the time away.
Can't you hear the whistle blowing,
The Gypsy Rover (E)
She left her father's castle gates
She left her own true lover
She left her servants and her estate
To follow the gypsy rover
Her father saddled up his fastest steed
And roamed the valleys all over
Sought his daughter at great speed
And the whistling gypsy rover.
"He is no gypsy, father dear"
"But lord of these lands all over,
And I will stay 'til my dying day
With my whistling gypsy rover

The Backwards Song (C)
Written by: Unknown, Copyright: Unknown; Tune: Beverley Hillbillies
Well, I walked up the door and I opened the stairs
Said my pyjamas and I put on my prayers.
Turned off the bed and jumped into the light
All because you kissed me goodnight!
Well, I woke up this morning and I scrambled my shoes
Polished up an egg and I toasted the news
Buttered my tie and took another bite
All because you kissed me goodnight!
I powdered my hair and pinned up my nose
I hung up my bath and turned on my clothes
I put out the clock and wound the cat up tight
All because you kissed me goodnight!
I ran up the shade and pulled down the stair
Curled the rug and vacuumed my hair
Just couldn’t tell my left foot from my right
All because you kissed me, never could resist me
All because you kissed me goodnight!

Well, we soaked poor Willy’s head in a pot of boilin’ lead
But, alas, all our efforts was in vain
(was in vain)
For after all we tried, Willy heaved a sigh and died
Then he sneezed, blowed his nose and died again.
No more upon the mat, will he tease poor pussy cat.
No more will he gently chew her tail
(gnash, gnash)
No more upon the stove, will he push her little nose,
Our Willy he has gone and kicked the pail.

I am not a stranger to the dark
Hide away, they say
'Cause we don't want your broken parts
I've learned to be ashamed of all my scars
Run away, they say
No one'll love you as you are
But I won't let them break me down to dust
I know that there's a place for us
For we are glorious
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out
I am brave, I am bruised
I am who I'm meant to be, this is me
Look out 'cause here I come
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
Another round of bullets hits my skin
Well, fire away 'cause today, I won't let the shame sink in
We are bursting through the barricades and
Reaching for the sun (we are warriors)
Yeah, that's what we've become (yeah, that's what we've become)
I won't let them break me down to dust
I know that there's a place for us
For we are glorious
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out
I am brave, I am bruised
I am who I'm meant to be, this is me
Look out 'cause here I come
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum

(Oh-oh-oh-oh) 'cause there's nothing I'm not worthy of
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down

This is me
Keala Settle, The Greatest Showman Ensemble
I am not a stranger to the dark
Hide away, they say
'Cause we don't want your broken parts
I've learned to be ashamed of all my scars
Run away, they say
No one'll love you as you are
But I won't let them break me down to dust
I know that there's a place for us
For we are glorious
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out
I am brave, I am bruised
I am who I'm meant to be, this is me
Look out 'cause here I come
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
Another round of bullets hits my skin
Well, fire away 'cause today, I won't let the shame sink in
We are bursting through the barricades and
Reaching for the sun (we are warriors)
Yeah, that's what we've become (yeah, that's what we've become)
I won't let them break me down to dust
I know that there's a place for us
For we are glorious
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out
I am brave, I am bruised
I am who I'm meant to be, this is me
Look out 'cause here I come
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
This is me
and I know that I deserve your love
(Oh-oh-oh-oh) 'cause there's nothing I'm not worthy of
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out
This is brave, this is proof
This is who I'm meant to be, this is me
Look out 'cause here I come (look out 'cause here I come)
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum (marching on, marching, marching on)
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out
I'm gonna send a flood
Gonna drown them out
Oh
This is me

There was an old lady who swallowed a fly;
I don't know why she swallowed a fly - perhaps she'll die!
There was an old lady who swallowed a spider;That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her!
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly;
I don't know why she swallowed a fly - Perhaps she'll die!
There was an old lady who swallowed a bird;
How absurd to swallow a bird!
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider;
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her!
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly;
I don't know why she swallowed a fly - Perhaps she'll die!
There was an old lady who swallowed a cat;
Fancy that she swallowed a cat!
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider;
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her!
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly;
I don't know why she swallowed a fly - Perhaps she'll die!
There was an old lady that swallowed a dog;
What a hog, to swallow a dog!
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat,
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider;
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her!
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly;
I don't know why she swallowed a fly - Perhaps she'll die!
There was an old lady who swallowed a goat;
She just opened her throat and swallowed a goat!
She swallowed the goat to catch the dog,
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat,
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider;
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her!
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly;
I don't know why she swallowed a fly - Perhaps she'll die!
There was an old lady who swallowed a cow;
I don't know how she swallowed a cow!
She swallowed the cow to catch the goat,
She swallowed the goat to catch the dog,
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat,
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider;
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her!
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly;
I don't know why she swallowed a fly - Perhaps she'll die!
There was an old lady who swallowed a horse;...She's dead, of course!
The Fox (Ukulele/Guitar D)
(Highlighted words are for soloists)
The fox went out on a chilly night
He prayed for the moon to give him light
He had many a mile to go that night
Before he reached the town-o, town-o, town-o
He had many a mile to go that night
Before he reached the town-o
Well, he ran till he came to the great big pen
The ducks and the geese were kept therein
He said, "A couple of you are gonna grease my chin
Before I leave this town, town-o, town-o"
He said, "A couple of you are gonna grease my chin
Before I leave this town-o"
He grabbed the grey goose by the neck
Threw the ducks across his back
And he didn't mind the quack, quack, quack
And the legs all danglin' down-o, down-o, down-o
He didn't mind the quack, quack, quack
And the legs all danglin' down-o
Old mother Flipper Flopper jumped out of bed
Out of the window she popped her head
Cryin', "John, John, the gray goose is gone
And the fox is on the town-o, town-o, town-o
She cried, “John, John, the gray goose is gone
and the fox is on the town-o!”
Well, the fox he ran to his cosy den
There were his little ones, eight, nine, ten
Cryin', "Daddy, daddy, better go back again
'Cause it must be a mighty fine town-o, town-o, town-o
Daddy, daddy, better go back again
'Cause it must be a mighty fine town-o"
Then the fox and his wife without any strife
Cut up the goose with a carving knife
They never had such a supper in their life
And the little ones chewed on the bones-o, bones-o, bones-o
They never had such a supper in their life
And the little ones chewed on the bones-o
There's a hole in my bucket (By the Topp Twins)
Well, the fox he ran to his cosy den
There were his little ones, eight, nine, ten
Cryin', "Daddy, daddy, better go back again
'Cause it must be a mighty fine town-o, town-o, town-o
Daddy, daddy, better go back again
'Cause it must be a mighty fine town-o"
Then the fox and his wife without any strife
Cut up the goose with a carving knife
They never had such a supper in their life
And the little ones chewed on the bones-o, bones-o, bones-o
They never had such a supper in their life
And the little ones chewed on the bones-o
We will Rock You (Sponge Bob does Queen)

Then mend it, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry,
Then mend it, dear Henry, dear Henry, mend it.

With what shall I cut it, dear Liza, dear Liza?
With what shall I cut it, dear Liza, with what?

With a knife, dear Henry, dear Henry, a knife.
The axe is too dull, dear Liza, dear Liza,
The axe is too dull, dear Liza, too dull.
Then sharpen it, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry,
Then sharpen it, dear Henry, dear Henry, sharpen it.
With what shall I sharpen it, dear Liza, dear Liza?
With what shall I sharpen it, dear Liza, on what?
With a stone, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry,
With a stone, dear Henry, dear Henry, a stone.
The stone is too dry, dear Liza, dear Liza,
The stone is too dry, dear Liza, too dry.
Then wet it, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry,
Then wet it, dear Henry, dear Henry, wet it.
With what shall I wet it, dear Liza, dear Liza?
With what shall I wet, dear Liza, with what?
With water, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry,
With water, dear Henry, dear Henry, water.
In what shall I carry it, dear Liza, dear Liza?

In a bucket, dear Henry, dear Henry, bucket.
There's a hole in my bucket, dear Liza, dear Liza,
There's a hole in my bucket, dear Liza, a hole.
Threw it out the Window
(This is a nonsense song based on nursery rhymes. It's certainly not a good idea to throw anything out the window.)
Little Jack Horner sat in a corner
Eating his Christmas pie;
He stuck in his thumb
And pulled out a plum,
And threw it out the window,
Eating his Christmas pie;
He stuck in his thumb
And pulled out a plum,
And threw it out the window,
The window, the second-storey window
He stuck in his thumb
And pulled out a plum,
And threw it out the window.
And pulled out a plum,
And threw it out the window.
Mary Had a Little Lamb,
Its fleece is white as snow,
And everywhere that Mary went,
She threw it out the window…
And everywhere that Mary went,
She threw it out the window…
Three blind mice
See how run
They all ran after the farmer’s wife
And threw her out the window . . .
Hickory, Dickory Dock,
The mouse ran up the clock
The clock struck one, the mouse ran down
And threw it out the window
Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard
To fetch her poor dog a bone,
But when she got there,the cupboard was bare,
She threw it out the window,
To fetch her poor dog a bone,
But when she got there,the cupboard was bare,
She threw it out the window,
Little Bo Peep has lost her sheep,
And doesn't know where to find them;
Leave them alone, and they’ll come home,
And throw them out the window. . .
Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet,
Eating her curds and whey;
Along came a spider and sat down beside her,
and threw her out the window . . .
Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water;
Jack fell down and broke his crown,
And threw it out the window . . .
And doesn't know where to find them;
Leave them alone, and they’ll come home,
And throw them out the window. . .
Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet,
Eating her curds and whey;
Along came a spider and sat down beside her,
and threw her out the window . . .
Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water;
Jack fell down and broke his crown,
And threw it out the window . . .
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall,
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall,
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men
Threw him out the window…

Oh won't you be my wife?
”Buk Buk Buk Buk

She replied,
”I'll be yours, and I'll be
true, and I'll lay lots of eggs for you I'll be yours for the rest of my life.”

When they released you as a pullet in a pen
There were twenty others too but none so nice
as you
I wanted you to perch with me right then

After you have laid your daily egg
When to us the wheat is thrown on the floor

I'll be yours until the master takes my head

To have three chicks a

Marvellous Toy
When I was just a wee little boy, full of health and joy.
One Christmas morning I received a marvellous little toy.
A wonder to be hold it was - many colours bright.
And the moment I laid eyes on it, it became my heart's delight.
It went "zzzip" when it moved,
"Bopp" when it stopped,
"Brrr" when it stood still.
I never knew just what it was
And I guess I never will.
The first time that I picked it up, I had a big surprise.
For right on its bottom were two green buttons
That looked like big green eyes. I first pushed one and then the other,
and then I pushed on its lid, and when I set it down again, this is what it did.
Chorus
It first marched left, then marched right, and then marched under a chair.
And when I looked where it had gone, it wasn't even there.
I started to cry. My daddy laughed; he knew that I would find
When I turned around, my marvellous toy chugging from behind.
Well, the years have passed, too quickly it seems. I have my own little boy,
And yesterday I gave to him my marvellous little toy.
His eyes nearly popped right out of his head. He gave a squeal of glee
Neither one of us knows just what it is, but he loves it just like me.
It still goes "zzzip" when it moves,
"Bopp" when it stops,
"Brrr" when it stands still.
I never knew just what it was
And I guess I never will.

Old Gallipoli's a Wonderful Place
Oh, old Gallipoli's a wonderful place
Where the boys in the trenches the foe have to face,
But they never grumble, they smile through it all,
Very soon they expect Achi Baba to fall.
At least when I asked them, that's what they told me
In Constantinople quite soon we would be,
But if war lasts till Doomsday I think we'll still be
Where old Gallipoli sweeps down to the sea.
We don't grow potatoes or barley or wheat,
So we're on the lookout for something to eat,
We're fed up with biscuits and bully and ham
And we're sick of the sight of yon parapet jam.
Send out steak and onions and nice ham and eggs
And a fine big fat chicken with five or six legs,
And a drink of the stuff that begins with a "B"
Where old Gallipoli sweeps down to the sea.

I'll tell me Ma:
I'll tell me ma when I go home
The boys won't leave the girls alone
They'll pull my hair, they stole my comb
Well, that's alright till I go home
She is handsome, she is pretty
The boys won't leave the girls alone
They'll pull my hair, they stole my comb
Well, that's alright till I go home
She is handsome, she is pretty
She is the belle of Belfast City
She is courtin' one, two, three
Please won't you tell me, who is she?
Albert Mooney say's he loves her
She is courtin' one, two, three
Please won't you tell me, who is she?
Albert Mooney say's he loves her
All the boy's are fighting for her
They knock at the door and ring at the bell
Oh my true love, are you well?
Out she comes as white as snow
They knock at the door and ring at the bell
Oh my true love, are you well?
Out she comes as white as snow
Rings on her fingers and bells on her toes
Ole Jenny Murray says she'll die
If you don't get the fella with the roving eye
Let the wind and the rain and hail blow high
Ole Jenny Murray says she'll die
If you don't get the fella with the roving eye
Let the wind and the rain and hail blow high
And the snow come tumbling from the sky
She's as nice as apple pie
She'll get her own lad by and by
She's as nice as apple pie
She'll get her own lad by and by
When she gets a lad of her own

They'll pull my hair, they stole my comb
Well, that's alright till I go home
She is handsome, she is pretty
They'll pull my hair, they stole my comb
Well, that's alright till I go home
She is handsome, she is pretty
She is the bell of Belfast City
She is courtin' one, two, three
Please won't you tell me, who is she?
I'll tell me ma when I go home
She is courtin' one, two, three
Please won't you tell me, who is she?

They'll pull my hair, they stole my comb
Well, that's alright till I go home

Please won't you tell me, who is she?
She is courtin' one, two, three
Please won't you tell me, who is she?

On Top of Spaghetti
On top of spaghetti,
All covered with cheese,
I lost my poor meatball,
When somebody sneezed.
It rolled off the table,
And on to the floor,
And then my poor meatball,
Rolled out of the door.
It rolled in the garden,
And under a bush,
And then my poor meatball,
Was nothing but mush.
The mush was as tasty
As tasty could be,
And then the next summer,
It grew into a tree.
The tree was all covered,
All covered with moss,
And on it grew meatballs,
And tomato sauce.
So if you eat spaghetti,
All covered with cheese,
Hold on to your meatball,
Whenever you sneeze.

I've been working on the railroad just to pass the time away.

The Gypsy Rover (E)
The
gypsy rover came over the hill
Down through the valley so shady,
He whistled and he sang 'til the greenwoods rang,
And he won the heart of a lady.
Chorus:
Ah-de-do, ah-de-do-da-day,
Ah-de-do, ah-de-da-ay
He whistled and he sang 'til the greenwoods rang,
And he won the heart of a lady.
Down through the valley so shady,
He whistled and he sang 'til the greenwoods rang,
And he won the heart of a lady.
Chorus:
Ah-de-do, ah-de-do-da-day,
Ah-de-do, ah-de-da-ay
He whistled and he sang 'til the greenwoods rang,
And he won the heart of a lady.
She left her father's castle gates
She left her own true lover
She left her servants and her estate
To follow the gypsy rover
Her father saddled up his fastest steed
And roamed the valleys all over
Sought his daughter at great speed
And the whistling gypsy rover.
He
came at last to a mansion fine,
Down by the river Claydee
And there was music and there was wine,
For the gypsy and his lady.
Down by the river Claydee
And there was music and there was wine,
For the gypsy and his lady.
"He is no gypsy, father dear"
"But lord of these lands all over,
And I will stay 'til my dying day
With my whistling gypsy rover

Molly Malone
In
Dublin's fair city, where the girls are so pretty
I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone
As she wheeled her wheelbarrow
I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone
As she wheeled her wheelbarrow
through
streets broad and narrow
Crying cockles and mussels alive a-live O!
A-live a-live O! A-live a-live O!
Crying cockles and mussels alive a-live O!
She was a fishmonger and sure‘twas no wonder
For so were her father and mother before
And they both wheeled their barrows
Crying cockles and mussels alive a-live O!
A-live a-live O! A-live a-live O!
Crying cockles and mussels alive a-live O!
She was a fishmonger and sure‘twas no wonder
For so were her father and mother before
And they both wheeled their barrows
through
streets broad and narrow
Crying cockles and mussels alive a-live O!
She died of a fever and no one could save her
And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone
Now her ghost wheels her barrow
Crying cockles and mussels alive a-live O!
She died of a fever and no one could save her
And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone
Now her ghost wheels her barrow
through
streets broad and narrow
Crying cockles and mussels alive a-live O!
Crying cockles and mussels alive a-live O!
Bug
Juice to the tune of On Top of Old Smoky
On camp at Lakewood Lodge
they gave us
a drink.
We thought it
was lemonade
although it
was pink.
But then what
they told us
made our
tummies all loose
For that
great tasting pink drink
was really
bug juice.
It fizzed and
it bubbled,
like real
lemonade,
but the
ingredients
were murdered
with Raid.
We drank by
the gallons,
we drank by
the tons,
but the very
next morning,
we all had
the runs.
Next time you
drink bug juice
and a fly
drives you mad,
he's just
getting even,
‘cause you
swallowed his dad.

Gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily,

Mrs O'Leary's Cow
Late one night, before she went to bed
Mrs O’Leary hung a lantern in her shed
And then her cow kicked it
over,
winked an eye at her and
said,
“There’ll be a hot time in
the old town tonight”
“FIRE! FIRE! FIRE!”
“FIRE! FIRE! FIRE!”
London’s burning, London’s
burning
Call the engines, call the
engines,
Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire!
Pour on water, Pour on water
Three blind mice.
Three blind mice.
See how they run. See how they run.
They all ran after the farmer's wife,
Who cut off their tails with a carving knife,
Did you ever see such a sight in your life,
As three blind mice
Three blind mice.
See how they run. See how they run.
They all ran after the farmer's wife,
Who cut off their tails with a carving knife,
Did you ever see such a sight in your life,
As three blind mice
Baaa Baaa black sheep
Have you any wool?
Yes, sir, Yes, sir
Three bags full
One for the master and one
for the dame
And one for the little boy
who lives down the lane
Burn, little candle, through
the night
Show to us your flickering
light
Turn the darkness into light
and slowly melt away
The Backwards Song (C)
Written by: Unknown, Copyright: Unknown; Tune: Beverley Hillbillies
Well, I walked up the door and I opened the stairs
Said my pyjamas and I put on my prayers.
Turned off the bed and jumped into the light
All because you kissed me goodnight!
Well, I woke up this morning and I scrambled my shoes
Polished up an egg and I toasted the news
Buttered my tie and took another bite
All because you kissed me goodnight!
I powdered my hair and pinned up my nose
I hung up my bath and turned on my clothes
I put out the clock and wound the cat up tight
All because you kissed me goodnight!
I ran up the shade and pulled down the stair
Curled the rug and vacuumed my hair
Just couldn’t tell my left foot from my right
All because you kissed me, never could resist me
All because you kissed me goodnight!
The Fox (D)
The fox went out on a chilly
night
He prayed for the moon to give him light
He prayed for the moon to give him light
He had many a
mile to go that night
Before he reached the town-o, town-o, town-o
He had many a mile to go that night
Before he reached the town-o, town-o, town-o
He had many a mile to go that night
Before he reached the town-o
Well, he ran till he came to
the great big pen
The ducks and the geese were kept therein
He said, "A couple of you are gonna grease my chin
Before I leave this town, town-o, town-o"
He said, "A couple of you are gonna grease my chin
Before I leave this town-o"
The ducks and the geese were kept therein
He said, "A couple of you are gonna grease my chin
Before I leave this town, town-o, town-o"
He said, "A couple of you are gonna grease my chin
Before I leave this town-o"
He grabbed the gray goose by
the neck
Threw the ducks across his back
And he didn't mind the quack, quack, quack
And the legs all danglin' down-o, down-o, down-o
He didn't mind the quack, quack, quack
And the legs all danglin' down-o
Threw the ducks across his back
And he didn't mind the quack, quack, quack
And the legs all danglin' down-o, down-o, down-o
He didn't mind the quack, quack, quack
And the legs all danglin' down-o
Old mother Flipper Flopper
jumped out of bed
Out of the window she popped her head
Cryin', "John, John, the gray goose is gone
And the fox is on the town-o, town-o, town-o
She cried, “John, John, the gray goose is gone and the fox is on the town-o!”
Out of the window she popped her head
Cryin', "John, John, the gray goose is gone
And the fox is on the town-o, town-o, town-o
She cried, “John, John, the gray goose is gone and the fox is on the town-o!”
Well, the fox he ran to his
cosy den
There were his little ones, eight, nine, ten
Cryin', "Daddy, daddy, better go back again
'Cause it must be a mighty fine town-o, town-o, town-o
Daddy, daddy, better go back again
'Cause it must be a mighty fine town-o"
There were his little ones, eight, nine, ten
Cryin', "Daddy, daddy, better go back again
'Cause it must be a mighty fine town-o, town-o, town-o
Daddy, daddy, better go back again
'Cause it must be a mighty fine town-o"
Then the fox and his wife
without any strife
Cut up the goose with a carving knife
They never had such a supper in their life
Cut up the goose with a carving knife
They never had such a supper in their life
And the little ones
chewed on the bones-o, bones-o, bones-o
They never had such a supper in their life
And the little ones chewed on the bones-o
They never had such a supper in their life
And the little ones chewed on the bones-o
Dessert Surprise (G) to the tune of Battle Hymn of the Republic
Once
when we were dining
and I
didn't want to eat;
There
was this stuff upon my plate
that
looked like silver beet
But then my mum, she
served dessert
and it was pink and red
I
asked her what she'd put in it,
and
this is what she said:
Chorus:
Chicken
lips and weta hips and alligator eyes;
Possum legs and moa eggs and tuatara thighs;
Rabbit
ears and camel rears and tasty toenail pies;
You
stir them all together, and it's called
"Dessert Surprise!"
I
went into the bathroom
and I
stood beside the sink;
I
said I'm feeling slightly ill,
I
think I'll have a drink;
My mum, she said,
"I've just the
thing, I'll get it in a wink;
It's
full of lots of minerals and vitamins I think."
'Cause
it's got . . .
Chorus:
Chicken
lips and weta hips and alligator eyes;
Possum legs and moa eggs and tuatara thighs;
Rabbit
ears and camel rears and tasty toenail pies;
You
stir them all together, and it's called
"Dessert Surprise!"
Buenos Días

World War 1 Medley (E)
Keep the home fires
burning,
While your hearts are
yearning
Though your lads are far
away
They dream of home
There’s a silver lining,
Through the dark cloud
shining,
Turn the dark cloud
inside out
‘Til the boys come home.
Pack up your troubles in
your old kit bag
And smile, smile, smile
While you’ve a Lucifer
to light your fag,
Smile, boys, that’s the
style
What’s the use of
worrying
It never was worthwhile
So, pack up your
troubles in your old kit bag
And smile, smile, smile.
It’s a long way to Tipperary
It’s a long way to go
It’s a long way to
Tipperary
To the sweetest girl I
know
Goodbye, Piccadilly
Farewell, Leicester
Square
It’s a long way to
Tipperary
But my heart’s right
there.
